Of course. But git is supposed to be very efficient in storing history and other things. I remembered when it first appeared when Linus was still maintaining it, it could have the Linux kernel's source tree with complete history and other things within 1.5 times the size of the net source. Git gc won't help because 54M is the size of the first checkout. Leo _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
